AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WAKEFIELD VA
524 PM EDT THU AUG 1 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE OFF THE COAST AND INTO THE CAROLINAS
OVERNIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE RETURNS ON FRIDAY AND SATURDAY. ANOTHER
COLD FRONT CROSSES THE REGION ON SUNDAY WITH HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING
BACK INTO THE AREA EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/...
THURSDAY AFTN...A COLD FRONT WAS SITUATED OVER WEST VIRGINIA AND WAS
MOVING TO THE SOUTHEAST. VARIOUS SURFACE TROUGHS FURTHER TO THE EAST
WERE RESULTING IN AREAS OF CONVERGENCE WITH SOME DOWNSLOPING AND
DRYING MOVING INTO THE CWA. THE MAIN CONVERGENCE WAS ALONG A BAND
NEAR THE CHESAPEAKE. ANOTHER WAS APPROACHING OUR NORTHWEST COUNTIES
FROM THE BLUE RIDGE. HAVE DROPPED POPS GENERALLY WEST OF INTERSTATE
95 FOR THE REST OF THE AFTN. NORTHWEST COUNTIES MAY EXPERIENCE A
BRIEF TSTM BUT OVERALL CONDITIONS SHOULD BE DRY OVER WRN PORTIONS.

A SHORT WAVE TROUGH AND RRQ OF UPPER LEVEL JET WILL MAINTAIN THE
POSSIBILITY OF TSTMS NEAR COASTAL AREAS WELL INTO THE EVENING HOURS.
THE THREAT FOR LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL CONTINUE OVER THE EASTERN
SHORE AND HAMPTON ROADS AND NEAR THE CHESAPEAKE THROUGH THE EARLY
EVENING HOURS.

DEW POINTS SLOWLY DROP AND MIN TEMPERATURES WILL BE A BIT COOLER
THAN THURSDAY MORNING OVER INLAND AREAS. LOWS SHOULD DROP IN THE MID
TO UPR 60S INLAND TO AROUND 70 NEAR THE COAST FRIDAY MORNING.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH SUNDAY/...
DRY WEATHER WILL PREVAIL FRIDAY AS WEAK HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO
THE REGION BEHIND THE AFOREMENTIONED SHORT WAVE TROUGH. PLENTY OF
SUNSHINE SHOULD ALLOW TEMPERATURE TO APPROACH 90 DEGREES OVER INLAND
AREAS AND THE MID 80S NEAR THE COAST. MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES CONTINUE
FRIDAY NIGHT WITH LOWS IN THE MID 60S WELL INLAND TO THE LWR 70S IN
THE HAMPTON ROADS AREA.

MID LEVEL MOISTURE INCREASES AHEAD OF THE NEXT COLD FRONT SATURDAY.
HAVE A CHC FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS BY THE AFTN...MAINLY OVER
NORTHERN AND EASTERN PORTIONS. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL BE IN THE UPR
80S TO AROUND 90.

THE COLD FRONT MOVES IN FROM THE N/NW SUNDAY. MAINLY USED NAM/SREF
FOR THE TIMING OF THE FRONT...THE GFS LOOKS TOO FAST AND AGGRESSIVE.
HAVE A CHC FOR TSTMS WITH THE FRONTAL PASSAGE...ENDING FROM N TO S
THROUGH THE AFTN. CLOUD COVER SHOULD HOLD TEMPERATURES DOWN TO THE
MID TO UPR 80S SUNDAY.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
MEDIUM RANGE LOOKS TO BE CHARACTERIZED BY AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE
OVER THE INTERMOUNTAIN WEST INTO WESTERN CANADA, WHILE AN UPPER
LEVEL TROUGH PERSISTS OVER THE NORTHEASTERN CONUS. THIS WILL PROMOTE
RELATIVELY COOLER AND DRIER AIR TO DRAIN OUT OF THE CANADIAN
PRAIRIES ACROSS THE NORTHEASTERN AND MID-ATLANTIC REGIONS.

FORECAST PERIOD BEINGS SUNDAY NIGHT WITH A WEAKENING BACKDOOR FRONT
DROPPING ACROSS THE AREA, LIKELY BECOMING STALLED ACROSS THE
CAROLINAS BEFORE WASHING OUT EARLY NEXT WEEK. IN ITS WAKE, EXPECT A
MAINLY DRY FORECAST, THOUGH WE DID RETAIN A SLIGHT CHC POP MAINLY
SOUTH OF HIGHWAY 58 CORRIDOR IN S VA/NE NC. SFC HIGH SLIDES OFFSHORE
TUESDAY/WEDNESDAY, WITH S-SW FLOW RETURNING AND BUMPING TEMPS UP
CLOSER TO SEASONAL VALUES FOR MIDWEEK. AS FOR SENSIBLE WX, WILL ALSO
SEE INCREASING (MAINLY DIURNALLY DRIVEN) SHRA/TSTM CHCS BOTH DAYS AS
SHORTWAVE ENERGY EMBEDDED IN THE LONGWAVE TROUGH MOVES ACROSS THE
NORTHERN MID-ATLANTIC. FOR TEMPERATURES, EXPECT MAXIMA TO AVERAGE
BELOW NORMAL FOR THE PERIOD, GENERALLY BE IN THE LOW TO MID
80S...AGAIN EXPECTING TEMPS TO RISE BACK UP TOWARDS NORMAL AHEAD OF
ANOTHER SLOW MOVING FRONT BY LATE NEXT WEEK. EARLY MORNING LOWS TO
AVERAGE IN THE LOWER TO MIDDLE 60S.

&&

.AVIATION /22Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
WITH COLD FRONT MOVING THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON AND SHOWERS AND SOME
THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING ACROSS THE AREA. SEVERAL SHORT LINES HAVE
FORMED. TRIED TO TIME THEM THROUGH THE TERMINALS. ALSO FOLLOWING
RUC TIMING AS WELL AS THAT SEEMS TO HAVE A GOOD HANDLE ON THE
CURRENT CONVECTION. HRRR TRIES TO BRING CONVECTION OVER NORTHWEST
VIRGINIA INTO CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST VIRGINIA TOWARD MIDNIGHT. NOT
SURE IF THIS WILL HOLD TOGETHER SO DID NOT INCLUDE IN THE TAFS.
WILL HAVE WATCH FOR LATER CHANGES. COULD SEE SOME FOG DEVELOP
AFTER THESE SHOWERS AS THE COLD FRONT DOES NOT CROSS THE AREA
UNTIL THE EARLY MORNING HOURS. AFTER SUNRISE ON FRIDAY CONDITIONS
WILL BECOME VFR AND REMAIN SO THROUGH MUCH OF SATURDAY. NEXT
SYSTEM APPROACHES SATURDAY AND SUNDAY WITH MORE THUNDERSTORMS
DEVELOPING AND COULD SEE SOME MVFR TO IFR CONDITIONS IN THE
THUNDERSTORMS.

&&

.MARINE...
LATEST OBS REFLECT S-SW WINDS ~15 KT. PRESSURE GRADIENT CONTINUES TO
TIGHTEN OVER THE WATERS AHEAD OF WK LO PRES, WHICH WILL PASS BY JUST
TO OUR NORTH THROUGH TODAY. ASSOCIATED CDFNT WILL PUSH ACROSS THE
WATERS TONIGHT. NOTING WINDS AT LOW END SCA IN THE BAY THIS AFTN,
AND SCA REMAINS IN PLACE OVER THE CHES BAY THROUGH 23Z/7PM FOR
FREQUENT WIND GUSTS ~20KT. CONSIDERED ADDING SCA FOR THE CURRITUCK
SOUND, BUT WL CAP OFF WINDS AT 15 KT THROUGH 7PM WITH THE IDEA THAT
BRIEF WINDOW OF HIGHER WINDS WILL BE MORE CONVECTIVE THAN ANYTHING
ELSE...AND THUS BEST HANDLED WITH SMW AS NEEDED.

WINDS WILL DIMINISH AFTER 00Z/8P AS GRADIENT SLACKENS WITH THE
APPROACH OF THE WEAKENING FRONT. WINDS VEER TO SW OVERNIGHT,
EVENTUALLY BECOMING WNW ERY FRIDAY. FRONT CONTINUES TO WEAKEN JUST
TO OUR SOUTH/SOUTHEAST TOMORROW, AS SFC HI PRES REBUILDS WEST OF THE
WATERS FRI INTO ERY SAT. SUB-SCA CONDS ARE EXPECTED DURING THIS
PERIOD, WITH WAVES/SEAS AVERAGING 2-4FT. NEXT CDFNT (BACKDOOR FRONT)
DROPS SOUTH ACROSS THE WATERS LATER SUN. POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR
ANOTHER BRIEF SURGE AHEAD OF THIS FRONT DURING THE DAY SUNDAY. WINDS
VEER AROUND TO THE E-SE MONDAY AS SFC HIGH PIVOTS OFF THE
MID-ATLANTIC COAST LATER MONDAY AND TUESDAY. LIGHT SOUTHERLY FLOW
FOLLOWS FOR LATER TUE/WED...AHEAD OF NEXT FRONT WHICH FOLLOWS BY
LATE NEXT WEEK.
